Surely it is more dangerous to reverse out into the main road, than to be sitting visibly in the main road looking to reverse in. And given that you wouldn't have 90° parking on a "fast road" it is totally nonsensical.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655889105820772060.post-46141777653064882872012-09-20T11:02:19.975+03:002012-09-20T11:02:19.975+03:00The confusion is all mine, Mr Goat.

I was taught it's easier to reverse in and drive straight out, but then I learned in an environment where it's more difficult to control a vehicle with a freezing cold engine.<br /><br />These motorists who will now not have to wait while you manoeuvre backwards into the space will do what, exactly, as you attempt to reverse into high-speed traffic as you leave the space? <br /><br />Grumpy Goathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07944514711900089561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7655889105820772060.post-37088018274421498782012-09-20T10:56:08.099+03:002012-09-20T10:56:08.099+03:00But drivers would still have to wait when the driv...But drivers would still have to wait when the drivers are leaving their parking spaces! It's the same thing.<br /><br />This is terrible news :( I've only started driving and reverse parking is what I'm used to and can manage well.
